Ingredients
- Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons
- Salt
- to taste
- Black pepper
- to taste
- White wine
- 1 cup
- Fresh rosemary
- 4 sprigs
- Bacon
- 12 slices
- Chicken breast, sliced
- 1 pound
- Pork loin, sliced
- 1 pound
- Beef sirloin, sliced
- 1 pound
Instructions
- Begin by seasoning the beef, pork, and chicken slices generously with salt and black pepper on both sides.
- Place a sprig of rosemary on each meat slice, then carefully wrap each slice with a piece of bacon, ensuring it is tightly secured.
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat until shimmering.
- Add the bacon-wrapped meat to the skillet, cooking until browned on all sides, approximately 5-7 minutes.
- Once browned, pour the white wine into the skillet. Allow it to simmer for about 5 minutes, or until the wine has reduced by half, enhancing the flavors.
- Cover the skillet with a lid and let the meat cook for an additional 15 minutes, or until fully cooked through and tender.
- Serve the Uccelli Scappati hot, drizzled with the reduced wine sauce from the skillet for added flavor.
Tips
- For added flavor, marinate the meats in olive oil, garlic, and additional rosemary for a few hours before wrapping.
- You can substitute the white wine with chicken broth for a non-alcoholic version, though it will alter the flavor slightly.
- Serve with a side of roasted vegetables or a fresh salad to balance the richness of the dish.
